recently i tried to log into AVD and it told me my password was wrong so i made a temp account, made a post about it and vanderaj fixed the problem for me. however after logging back in i found that my signature pic which links to my website no longer works. instead it now just displays the code where the picture should be.......can someone tell me why this is. can we not have linking signatures now?

thanks
Nick

try taking the "SRC= " part out

i did this recently when i change my sig line just use the <IMG> tag

Anthiron ·

this is the code in my signature lets see if this works.


<IMG SRC="http://www.petermcleod.com/sig1.bmp"</IMG>

Anthiron ·

Gimme a go..

Here's the key..

Here's the original..
<IMG SRC="http://www.petermcleod.com/sig1.bmp"</IMG>

1. take out src=" and " at the other end.
2. change the < > into [ ]
3. img must be enclosed via these [ ], and the backslash at the closing one..

In other words, it should now look like this..

[*IMG]http://www.petermcleod.com/sig1.bmp[*/IMG] (minus the asterixes)

ok so if i use that code can i link it to my website somehow like it used to be or is that not an option any more? i used to get alot of traffic from this site.

i seem to remember somewhere that you cant use html anymore?

From what it look like at the mo you are missing the '[' of your IMG tag

Anthiron ·

if i cant use HTML anymore then why can the manx club signtature pics still link to the website? i viewed the source and its HTML...........can someone explain? is it because my account was reset and so now i must adopt the new rules?

yeah my avatar used to be really big...and then i went to change some of my info and it complained about my avatar size!!

I got over it though, one day i will put a new avatar in

You can combine BBCode together to get them to click together. 🙂
